12 travel destinations that health care professionals have on their group list

Ask anyone who has a serious case of a hike, and they’ll probably tell you how long you’ve been traveling — or how many stamps you have in your passport — the list of trips you need to make is ever-growing and never-ending.

Among those who are always willing to pack (leave plenty of room or healthy snacks, without a doubt) are members of our Good + Good Council. These chefs, doctors, healers, and CEOs devote a considerable period of time to their work. (They are the kind of people who travel to Bali to interview indigenous energy healers, Japan to overnight on sacred mountain meditation with Buddhist monks, or Stockholm to open the latest international studio in their growing fitness empire — just like it’s NBD.) what about the entertainment-only destinations they want to visit in the dying time (if any)?

Here are the dream holiday locations where our carefully selected medical team will be ready to set an OOO alert in a minute.

I can’t get Fiji out of my mind.

Kimberly Snyder, SUN, renowned nutritionist
I’ve traveled all over the world, but I’ve never been to Israel and I think that’s going to be really exciting.

It’s hard to pick one! Tibet or Bali?

Hopefully, one day will be loved in Barcelona or Florence….

Bali, as soon as I opened this baby. [Editor’s note: Darville gave birth to a healthy baby boy on Labor Day weekend. TBD whether she booked the trip to Ubud….]

I’m going to the Middle East to see about a humanitarian project.

I’m always looking forward to my next trip back to Australia.

Health care vacations are not merely, there are many life lessons in traveling alone. And these retreats can really change your brain chemistry.
